Just Fly

Hello 🙂 2020 is settling in, I’m not even making any mistakes when I write the date down anymore! The first challenge of the year is on at the Aurora Wings Facebook group. The challenges are ATG, and you can enter just a coloring, or a full project; you can also enter works that you have done in the past….we love to see it all!!! I used the image Reverie for my card, you can find it HERE in the digi shop, and HERE on Etsy. Be sure to check if there are any discount codes that Mitzi has posted in the group, so you can get a great deal on any of her gorgeous images!! I colored this with my Copics, and added a few touches with gold and white pens when I was done. After die cutting it out with a pretty oval die, I sprinkled some embossing powders around the image to give some sparkle and texture.

For the card base, I die cut the center of the front flap with the same die that I used for the image, to make 2 pieces. After edging the scallops with my white Posca, I attached the image, backing it with another cut to sandwich the card base pieces. I wanted to bring in the gorgeous from the image with my embellishments. A combination of flowers, die cut greenery, some delicate beaded thread, some stamens, and some touches of clear sparkle pen, I achieved the look I was going for. I searched for the sentiment for quite awhile….I knew in a way what I was looking for, and when I found this one, I created a style of my own on my computer. I think we all have wings that we forget about sometimes, and this card is a great reminder for someone that needs a bit of encouragement!!
